428 Ghost Street

"How?" Zhou Qiang chuckled and pouted at Xu Ke, and said with a lovely smile, "My gambling stone skills are okay, right?"

"Hmph. Xu Ke gritted his teeth, but he couldn't speak.

After all, Zhou Qiang was able to take shit luck and dissolve a piece of glass jade from such a bad stone, even if it was only the size of a fist, at most about a catty, but it was shocking enough.

In addition, Xu Ke previously declared that Zhou Qiang was 100% defeated, which undoubtedly swollen his face.

As soon as he thought of this, Xu Ke felt that Zhou Qiang's words were like two slaps, slapping his face wildly on the left and right.

Zhou Qiang smiled slightly, and when he saw that the Xu family and the others stopped talking, he simply walked straight to Jin Enxi, Ouyang Jing and Song Xi'er, and said hello: "Oh, I didn't expect that we were very fateful, ladies." ”

"Hmph. Song Xi'er pouted, unwilling to continue to talk to Zhou Qiang.

Ouyang Jing tapped her head politely and detachedly, indicating that she had said hello.

Jin Enxi smiled lightly and glanced at Zhou Qiang: "You seem to be very good at gambling stones? ”

"Of course. Zhou Qiang smiled, "Miss Kim Eun-hee has a unique eye, and she can see my special ability." To tell you the truth, I have a pair of super clairvoyant eyes that can penetrate the nine heavens and ten earths and see through the essence of all food!"

"Hooligans. Song Xi'er immediately grabbed her clothes and instinctively covered her chest with her arms.

See-through eyes.

As a woman, it is inevitable that you will be sensitive.

Zhou Qiang touched his nose slightly embarrassed and shrugged his shoulders: "I'm sorry." However, you have to trust the character of a gentleman, I can't just peep at a girl. ”

"Hehe, with your see-through eyes, you should be able to make a huge fortune easily, right?" Kim Eun-hee chatted with Zhou Qiang without a match.

"Yes, I have already decided, next, I will rely on my invincible clairvoyance to make a fortune in all the antique markets and gambling stone markets in Yanjing City! Old God Zhou Qiang said.

"You're really stunned, so who can casually make money in the gambling stone and antique market?" Kim Eun-hee rolled his eyes helplessly, and reminded Zhou Qiang earnestly, "Don't be fooled." This kind of thing, even if you can succeed once or twice once in a while, but after gambling for a long time, often walking by the river, how can there be a person who doesn't get your shoes wet? Probably last week, a person in my circle of friends, under the help of others, bought a Song Dynasty preaching Buddha head, he is a believer, he thinks that buying this thing can bring good luck to the family, so as to achieve financial prosperity, crazy money. But he never expected that not long after, there would be cockroaches at home!"

Zhou Qiang was stunned, slightly puzzled and asked with interest: "Oh? What can a good Buddha head have to do with cockroaches?" Please tell me the follow-up, my sixth sense tells me that this story must be particularly interesting." ”

Kim Eun-hee sighed, "Heh, this is not an interesting story. He bought a bunch of insecticides and extinguished all the cockroaches in the house, but a week later, another batch of young cockroaches hatched, which made him puzzled. So, he hired a pest control expert to come to his villa to deal with it. He paid a full 6,000 yuan to ask an exterminator to find out the location of the cockroach eggs and annihilate them all, so as to eliminate all cockroaches at the source. Guess where the cockroach eggs are hidden?"

"Where? Could it be the Buddha's head?" Zhou Qiang touched his nose.

"Yes! Your Excellency is very clever. Kim Eun-hee tapped his head, and his delicate face showed a touch of awe-inspiring, and explained solemnly, "That Buddha head is indeed a fake! It is a fake Buddha head made of sandstone fired in a furnace in the cellar of counterfeiters using a material called kaolin." When it was manufactured, there were gaps in the fakes, and when they were old, they were deliberately buried in the tomb soil to soak them to create some special textures that only old Buddha heads have. ”

Kim Eun-hee's face was complicated, and he continued to talk eloquently: "The conditions of that cellar are very harsh, and it is in a rather dirty southern village, so it is frantically laid by cockroaches. Moreover, cockroaches are known as unbeatable Xiaoqiang, and their eggs can be preserved for a long, long time. Thereupon...... In the end, there was the scene that followed: young cockroaches kept coming in and out of the eye sockets of the sandstone Buddha head, and the scene was too terrifying. ”

"I see. Zhou Qiang nodded his head, but smiled leisurely, "I definitely won't be tricked." This kind of trick is clever, but it can't hide from my eyes. ”

"To be precise, you can't hide my relics. Zhou Qiang silently added in his heart.

I can appreciate treasures and gamble stones from the essence of aura, and I have invincible treasure appreciation ability and gambling stone level. Therefore, Zhou Qiang was not stunned at all.

Moreover, Zhou Qiang got a lot of wealth from the previous Blood Demon King Taiyi, so even if he really planted it on the treasure and gambling stones, it would be impossible for him to go bankrupt, it was nothing more than a loss of some small money, he could immediately rein in the precipice and stop losses accurately.

"You!"

Jin Eunxi was so angry that she couldn't speak, she originally wanted to persuade a few more words seriously, but looking at Zhou Qiang's face, she was simply hard-hearted.

"I know some other stories......" In addition to being angry, Kim Eun-hee was still determined to fulfill his obligations as a friend and persuade Zhou Qiang. In her heart, she felt that Zhou Qiang was already her friend, after all, he could see through her identity, but he did not expose it, so it can be seen that there is no malice. Moreover, Zhou Qiang has an infinite future and a bright future, if she ruins her life because of her addiction to gambling, she always feels a pity.

Kim Eun-hee is an intellectual lady, she has read many similar stories, and she can easily read them, so she intends to use sufficient arguments to dispel Zhou Qiang's thoughts.

But Zhou Qiang yawned and said with a smile: "I also know this kind of story." For example, I've heard of a classic antique scam. A customer once went to a long-established antique store to buy a ceramic vase, which was enamelled from the Qing Dynasty, which was not expensive, but it was not cheap either. He took the archaeological expert with him, and after confirming it repeatedly, he was sure that it was true. However, after finally buying it home and storing it for two years, it was still seen by experienced people as a fake. ”

"Hmph, it seems that the archaeologist he brought with him is of limited standard. Kim Eun-hee pursed his lips and took the opportunity to say, "Look, experts can't do it, why do you swear?"

Zhou Qiang smiled: "However, that archaeological expert is extremely authoritative in the industry, and he has been beaten very few times. The collector ran to the archaeologist in a rage. So, they went to see the fake again. Guess how it ends?"

“…… Huh?" Kim Eun-hee looked blank.

Zhou Qiang then said: "Hehe, the archaeological experts immediately said that this thing is not the one they identified at the beginning!

"Stealing the day. Right under the noses of an archaeologist and a collector, it was miraculously staged. Zhou Qiang sighed, "Later, they pondered and finally found a flaw. It turned out that under the counter, there was a mechanism that automatically lowered the genuine when the vase was packed, and then the fake came up. And the fakes are very realistic, at first glance they look like the real thing, and even when they are identified, there are no flaws in the appearance, so they successfully deceive them. ”

"It's not a clever trick either. Kim Eun-hee pouted.

Zhou Qiang sighed: "That's true." If the two of them look a little closer, or just take the vase away and wrap it themselves, it will not give people a chance to take advantage of it. But who would have thought that in a quaint antique store, there would be such a high-tech design?"

"Since you know everything, you still have to fight with those deceitful antique dealers, do you still have to fight with those vicious gamblers? Aren't you killing yourself?" Jin Enxi looked at Zhou Qiang in disbelief, feeling that he was purely a pain in the egg, and he simply thought that he had too much money.

Zhou Qiang smiled slightly, and said mysteriously: "I'm sorry, I have a unique secret skill of appreciating treasure gambling stones! Therefore, I am invincible in the treasure appraisal field and the gambling stone field, with a 100% success rate, and I have never met an opponent in my life." ”

"Just blow it. Jin Eunxi sighed, she knew that she couldn't persuade Zhou Qiang at all, that guy was a donkey at all, so she could only follow the hair.

At this moment, Song Xi'er, who had always lacked a good impression of Zhou Qiang, fanned the flames with schadenfreude: "Okay, since that's the case, then I recommend a place where you can prove your strength: the largest antique and gambling stone market in our Yanjing City is the ghost street in the south of the city." It will not open until 24 o'clock in the evening, when the lights are dark, and the streets are lined with antique stalls, with everything from gold and stone calligraphy and paintings to bronze and wood ware. Countless anonymous second-tier dealers or tomb robbers will go there, and there treasure and stone gambling are basically all up to their skills. ”

"Even, the gambling stones there include not only jadeite, but also bloodstone and Hetian jade, etc., you can completely show your strengths. Song Xi'er said with a little sarcasm.

"Remind you: there is an unspoken rule on that ghost street, that is: once the money and goods are cleared, after leaving, even if it is a fake, the buyer must not go to the seller for trouble. Otherwise, you will become their public enemy!" Song Xi'er pouted, "So my uncle advises me, don't go there to find death." However, I think you can do it, go ahead, our treasure experts and gambling experts!"

"OK, I made a note of it. Zhou Qiang is not surprised by this general unspoken rule that all treasure appreciation markets have, and he is not afraid.

In fact, the so-called ghost street is just a gimmick.

It's easy to guess what its real purpose is: it doesn't start selling until after midnight, which is in favor of tomb robbers who don't see their identities to show their faces, and some black dealers with unclean identities can also get involved, and there must be a lot of scammers, especially those who are counterfeit dealers.

Moreover, the black light is blind, which is extremely unfavorable to the treasure connoisseurs.

Some small flaws can only be seen clearly under strong light.

Moreover, there is also a huge advantage, that is, the civil servants are rested at night, which means that there will not be too many people from the official to regulate the market, which is convenient for many dark box operations.

Therefore, ghost streets are actually extremely beneficial for sellers and especially unpleasant for buyers. It's just that if the supply is sufficient, it means that a lot of treasures will be found, so there will be many people rushing to it.

Coupled with this kind of sales method of refusing to welcome, Zhou Qiang can imagine that this ghost street must be a local characteristic, and business is very hot.
